Author summary Burkholderia pseudomalleihas the potential to cause mycotic aneurysm, an infrequently-occurred complication of melioidosis, with a high mortality rate despite appropriate antibiotic therapy and vascular surgery. The comprehensive clinical features of mycotic aneurysm due toB.pseudomallaeihave not been documented in the People's Republic of China and might be underrecognized. Therefore, we described eight patients with mycotic aneurysm from 159 bacteremic melioidosis patients in Hainan, China, over a seven-year period (between 2013 to 2019). We summarized their clinical characteristics, demographical features, treatments and outcomes. To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive report of mycotic aneurysm secondary to melioidosis in China. In summary, in melioidosis endemic areas, or for those returning from endemic areas, increased awareness of the risk factors is required for early diagnosis and management of mycotic aneurysm secondary to melioidosis. Burkholderia pseudomalleiis the causative agent of melioidosis, endemic in Southeast Asia and Northern Australia, and increasingly recognized in southern China, especially in Hainan Province. Mycotic aneurysm caused byB.pseudomalleiis a rare but potentially severe illness with a high mortality rate. The clinical features of the mycotic aneurysm secondary to melioidosis have not been illustrated in China. Over a seven-year period (2013 to 2019), 159 patients with bacteremic melioidosis were retrospectively analyzed in Hainan province, China, of whom eight patients were confirmed to have mycotic aneurysm through the combination of imaging examination, pathologic examination and aneurysm tissue culture. We summarized these eight patients' clinical characteristics, demographical features, treatments and outcomes. The susceptibilities to five commonly-used antibiotics for these eightB.pseudomalleiisolates were also determined by E-test strips. Furthermore, the mycotic aneurysm cases secondary to melioidosis retrieved from the literature were also reviewed. Of the eight cases, six had abdominal mycotic aneurysms, one had a left iliac aneurysm, and the other one had an infectious mesenteric aneurysm. They were aged from 48 to 69 years old, and had the underlying risk factors of diabetes mellitus (2 patients), long-term smoking (4 patients), hypertension (6 patients), and soil and water contact history (6 patients), respectively. The positive arterial aneurysm imaging was observed in all patientsviacomputed tomography (CT) or angiography. EightB.pseudomalleiisolates collected from both blood and mycotic aneurysm tissues remained 100% susceptible to imipenem and ceftazidime. After surgery combined with antibiotic administration, six patients survived, with a mortality rate of 25%. In melioidosis endemic areas, the mycotic aneurysm secondary to melioidosis might be underdiagnosed, and increased awareness of predisposing risk factors and clinical features of the mycotic aneurysm is required. Following a positiveB.pseudomalleiblood culture, the diagnosis of mycotic aneurysm should be under consideration in those with abdominal pain and/or hypertension. Imaging by CT or angiography is indispensable for its timely diagnosis and management.
